She started her New Year celebrations with 10 other friends at Cologne’s main train station when fighting broke out.

The women suddenly found themselves surrounded by a group of 20 to 30 men.

They were full of anger, and we had to make sure that none of us were pulled away by them. They were groping us and we were trying to get away as quickly as possible.
